Use the Zicklin School of Business online application below to appeal a decision regarding your academic standing or scholastic requirements.

➤ Submission Deadlines and Meeting Dates:

➤ Submitting an Appeal:

When completing your application, please refer to the following guidelines:

• Clearly express what you are requesting in your appeal statement.
  
  
• Provide documents that support your appeal.
  • This can be medical/mental health records, a letter from your healthcare provider, or any evidence of personal hardship (like a death certificate of a loved one).
  • An appeal request that does not include any documentation is unlikely to be approved.
    
    
• Please submit your support documents in the space provided in the application.
  • If you have additional documents that exceed the allotted upload space, please submit via email to: zicklin.gcas@baruch.cuny.edu.
    
    
• Students do not appear before the committee.
  
  
• Submission of an appeal does not guarantee a favorable outcome. Please understand that this is a serious process and should be treated as such.
  
  
• For a late withdrawal appeal, provide the reason why you were unable to withdraw by the deadline to do so.
  
  
• For a reinstatement appeal, it may be helpful to think of your statement in terms of “past, present, future”. Be sure to address the following three points, documenting all you can:
  • What were the “past” circumstances that contributed to your academic difficulties?
  • Have those circumstances changed? What is different in the “present”?
  • How do you plan to successfully complete your degree in the “future”? Provide a detailed plan explaining how you will remedy prior obstacles to success and complete your remaining degree requirements.

➤ What to Expect:

You can expect to receive your appeal decision via email, usually 1-2 business days following the scheduled meeting.

For students approved to register for the upcoming semester or summer session, allow at least 5 to 7 days for the registration hold to be lifted by the Registrar’s Office after receipt of the appeals decision.

If you have questions about the appeals process, please email zicklin.gcas@baruch.cuny.edu.

If you have questions about your academic progress please contact your MBA or MS program advisors or Executive program academic directors.
